Checklist
Evidence should be defined before collection
The project runs more smoothly when the asset list, erasure or destruction method, evidence expectations, and final certificate requirements are agreed early.
Asset tracking
Use serial numbers, quantities, device categories, and site locations to prevent gaps between collection and final reporting.
Evidence package
Define whether photos, video, chain-of-custody notes, erasure records, or certificate records are required.
